This is the OFFICIAL Pit Reporter Minkus' Warped Tour Pre-Premiere party for the Warped Tour 15th Anniversary theatrical event coming out on Sept 17th! Remember, this is a one night only showing- and will also be my movie debut so come party and watch the movie with me! To make my party something really cool, I'm going to be having a concert before the movie premieres at 8pm. It's been a while since I've booked in my home town so it's pretty exciting for me. There will be a few bands at the show, all with a different sound- just like Warped! After the show, we will all head over to the movie theater together and rock out to the movie. Want more info on the movie?
